When the BC College of Teachers tried to pull a similar stunt the Supreme Court of Canada ruled (8/1) in favour of Trinity. See para 35 of the ruling where it is stated:

"... there is nothing in the TWU Community Standards that indicates that graduates of TWU will not treat homosexuals fairly and respectfully. Indeed, the evidence to date is that graduates from the joint TWU-SFU teacher education program have become competent public school teachers, and there is no evidence before this Court of discriminatory conduct by any graduate. ..."

So, extrapolating that ruling to the NB case (there's no basic difference), the NB Law Society's anti-Christian bigotry is illegal, a violation of Charter Rights and Freedoms.

Storied American schools like Yale or Harvard started out as Christian institutions. Would the NB Law Society have trouble recognizing Lawyers from these academies? Somehow I doubt it; it is much easier to bully a small unfashionable Canadian school.

There is a truism in the generalization that all bigots have fascist tendencies only outdone by their cowardice and profound ignorance... The New Brunswick Law society is a prime example of the truth in this theory. Somewhat ironic coming from a welfare Province like New Brunswick that leeches off of other Provinces, like BC, to pay for unsustainable bigoted social engineering schemes like "bilingualism".

"It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their consciences." -- C. S. Lewis
